Can't install libnfc, http://libnfc.googlecode.com invalid U

Post by JTurner56 »

I'm trying to install libnfc and have gotten to this step:

wget http://libnfc.googlecode.com/files/libnfc-x.x.x.tar.gz

I believe my version is 1.8.4, so I do:

wget http://libnfc.googlecode.com/files/libnfc-1.8.4.tar.gz

But I keep getting error after error no matter what I try. I have tried both http and https and it keeps either not finding anything and erroring out or it says certificates can't be trusted so I did:

wget --no-check-certificate http://libnfc.googlecode.com/files/libnfc-1.8.4.tar.gz

and then it says error 404 not found.

I can ping google and my beaglebone is connected to the internet succesfully. How do I get past this step? Thank you

I get a 404 as well from my PC. That isn't a valid URL any more:
http://libnfc.googlecode.com/files/libnfc-1.8.4.tar.gz

I'll see if there is a newer version that is available.
